I've been a quilter for over 50 years and more recently a weaver and spinner. One of the wonderful things about struggles and mistakes in creating art or learning to use new equipment is we remember not to do the hard part again, we find better ways. I wish you much joy! I love weaving and have become convinced there is a weaving goddess who is always putting just the right people to help us on our journey.

I know this is a month old but I thought I’d mention that you can use a slim profile boat shuttle when you have a shallow weaving shed.

What a find. A sweet looking loom. Please, please do not play music "in the background" while you are speaking, I couldn't understand a thing you were saying.

Your warp needs to go over the back beam, not under it. Should help with your warp issues. ❤

Thank you! I'll definitely keep that in mind next time 😊

It's great to see a fellow KZbin weaver also doing your first project on your new to you table loom. I've just done mine and filmed it too. I too had to redo things quite a few times, but maybe not with quite as much patience as you 😂 I only wove a few samples the first time. You were very ambitious! I love the crocheted border too! I look forward to seeing what else you create :)

Making samples first is probably smarter than going all in at once with a whole blanket 😂 Thank you! I'll have to check out your channel too 💕

@@lolarywilliams I dunno, you were on a mission! It turned out great! Did it wash well? I think that's one the main reasons to do samples, to see how the yarns are once washed and maybe to see how they come out with different weave structures, however I did a sample, now I'm weaving a journal cover and it's come out completely different to the sample 😂 also I didn't get round to wet finishing the sample.... Oh well 😂 fingers crossed it comes out okay in the end!

That was lovely! You persevered and the result is great! Hopefully a helpful comment-next time you set the loom up, bring the warp threads up over the back beam, the same as you did over the front beam. This way you will get much more space to pass your shuttle through.

Lola, this was such a wonderful video! I am a very seasoned weaver, and was truly enchanted with your discoveries using your wee thrifted loom. Your loom is a little table rising shed loom -- meaning that its shafts/harnesses (the two frames that hold the strings) rise up to change the sheds. The strings are called heddles, and you already know what the reed is called. Your tenacity in working out just how to thread your heddles, and then sley the dents (spaces) in your reed, was awesome! So delighted that you did not give up. Even seasoned weavers can have times when we have to rethread, or resley, and retie on. Your video made me think back to my very first loom and how excited I was to finally have it, and all the discoveries and mishaps along the way. You are intrepid, and I am confident that you will continue on to make more beautiful creations with this vintage table loom. The baby blanket is beautiful, and you did exactly what many weavers have done for centuries, and that was to cut your yardage in half and then sew it together to make the full blanket. You can see this historically, especially, with many coverlets that were woven here in the US during colonial times. You are a natural born weaver! I would encourage you to do a web search for a local weaving guild in your area. They will welcome you, and are a wonderful resources for weavers of all levels and with all types of equipment. Most also have several members who are also spinners and dyers. Thank you for these lovely 15 minutes while enjoying my morning coffee. I am in the middle of putting together a very complicated 16 shaft table loom as I type--and had to redo several times the steps to get the shafts positioned correctly, despite great directions and a terrific youtube instruction video. I finally have 8 of the shafts in place, and will tackle the other 8 after my coffee. Watching your fortitude with your little loom, helped renew my excitement in getting my new loom constructed and ready for weaving. Wishing you many years of continued weaving, and creativity. ❤❤

I'm so excited to know that my little loom is called a jack loom! Thank you for your wonderful insights, I've also found a local guild since I filmed this video. Good luck on putting together your loom and on future weaving projects! 💕
